Chapter 102: Won’t Let Her See Sophia
In the afternoon, Emma and her daughter arranged to meet Lily at a cafe.
By the time Lily arrived, the two of them were already waiting by the window.
“Sorry for keeping you waiting,” Lily said as she sat down across from them.
Emma smiled innocently, “We just got here. Please have a seat. I ordered some desserts. I’m not sure if they suit your taste, but you can give them a try.”
After saying that, she waved her hand to summon the waiter to bring the food.
In no time, several exquisite pastries were placed in front of the three of them.
Lily smiled with satisfaction, “Emma still cares about me. She knows I like sweet things. Victor lacks that consideration.”
The three of them engaged in casual conversation, and Beatrice subtly mentioned Olivia’s matters.
“By the way, when Emma went to see Liam the other day, she encountered that woman who divorced Victor six years ago. When did she return to the country? Do you know?”
Upon hearing this, the smile on Lily’s face gradually disappeared. “Olivia? She actually dares to come back? If you hadn’t mentioned it today, I wouldn’t have known!”
That woman had left with a divorce agreement six years ago and never looked back. A year later, Sophia was sent back to them because she had no guardian.
Just the thought of these things made Lily furious. Now that woman dares to return to the country?
Beatrice feigned surprise, “Don’t you know? When Emma went that day, Victor was there too, and it seems like they have a good relationship. I thought you were planning to let her come back and take care of Sophia!”
Lily frowned displeasedly, “Where does she get the nerve to take care of Sophia? If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t even let her see Sophia’s face!”
That woman had been so resolute in leaving, even willing to abandon her own child. How could Lily dare to let her near Sophia again?
Lily’s reaction was within the expectations of the two women.
Seeing her angry expression, Emma comfortingly smiled, “Please don’t get upset. Victor might not even have that intention.”
After saying that, she lowered her gaze with a hint of disappointment, and the smile on her face was visibly forced.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing her like that, Lily became even more angry. “What’s going on? Did Victor bully you?”
Emma hesitated to speak and looked silently at her mother.
Beatrice timely defended her daughter, “I won’t hide it from you. The last time we had dinner together, Victor didn’t attend. I asked Emma to call him, but in his words, he implied his intention to break off the engagement with Emma. This foolish child didn’t dare to tell us. If I hadn’t noticed something was wrong with her mood and asked persistently for a few days, she would probably still be in the dark!”
After saying that, Beatrice turned her head to scold Emma with a glare, then looked at Lily, “So, the reason I invited you out today was to confirm this matter. If you plan to let that woman return to the Leer family, I’d rather put my foolish daughter’s mind to rest as soon as possible.”
